Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>U.S. Embassy in Mozambique is pleased to announce that nine participants from Mozambique in the 2022 Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders, are now in the United States. This U.S. State Department program for young African leaders is aimed at professional and cultural exchange.<\/p>\n

Launched in 2014, the Mandela Washington Fellowship is the flagship program of the Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) and embodies the U.S. commitment to invest in the future of Africa. YALI was created in 2010 and supports young Africans as they spur economic growth and prosperity, strengthen democratic governance, and enhance peace and security across Africa. Since 2014, nearly 5,100 young leaders from every country in Sub-Saharan Africa, among them 60 Mozambicans, have participated in the Mandela Washington Fellowship.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis program provides opportunities for an impressive group of young Mozambican leaders. Together with young Americans, participants will gain experiences and knowledge of other realities and strengthen the friendship between both peoples,\u201d said U.S. Embassy Charg\u00e9 d\u2019Affaires Abigail Dressel. \u201cWe are happy the program could take place in person this year, and proud that the selected youth represent northern, central, and southern Mozambique.\u201d<\/p>\n

This year, 27 U.S. educational institutions will host Leadership Institutes for approximately 700 Mandela Washington Fellows. The six-week Institutes, hosted by college and university campuses across the United States, will support the development of Fellows\u2019 leadership skills through academic study, workshops, mentoring, networking with U.S. leaders, and collaboration with members of the local community.<\/p>\n

The Mozambique YALI Fellows for 2022 are:<\/p>\n

After their Leadership Institutes, Fellows will participate in a virtual Summit. Additionally, up to 100 competitively selected Fellows will have professional experiences in U.S. organizations in the public, private, or non-profit sector. Fellows can participate in Alumni Programming after their Fellowships to further build their professional skills and networks with support from the U.S. government.<\/p>\n
